Hi all,
After spending the morning cleaning out the leaves from the gutters of the house, and cleaning the water butt, I should now have a pretty clean source of rain water. So next weekend when I do my water change, I am thinking of using some rain water with my regular tap water. Should I get the fish used to rain water by starting with small amounts each week to start with, or will they be ok just using all rain water?
My main concern is stressing the fish from a sudden change in water chemistry.
